Couple blasted for 'stupid' stunt on beach where woman died

An acrobatic couple has been criticised for a stunt they performed dangerously close to an approaching plane at a beach notorious for low-flying aircraft.

Oleg Kolisnichenko, 36, and Yuliia Nos, 25, from Ukraine, photographed themselves seemingly just metres from an approaching aircraft at Maho Beach, on the Caribbean island of Saint Martin.

“Stupidity at its finest”

Their daring image shows Mr Kolisnichenko standing on the sand with Ms Nos acrobatically perched on his head using just one arm for support – all while an oncoming plane passes by en route to Princess Juliana International Airport.
